Website Review by Preston Pertuset

The Mr. Money Mustache website is a blog for people who want an unorthodox review or advice on anything from cars to health and fitness, but for the main purpose of gaining knowledge on becoming financially successful. Peter Adeney, also known as Mr. Money Mustache shares his steps that he took to thrive financially. My first impression on the Mr. Money Mustache website was that it was fun. You get a feel for Peter Adeney’s personality in the way he writes and the website design. The audience that would be attracted by his blog posts would be young adults and older, or anyone looking to be more financially stable as most of his blog posts are financial advice from his own experience.

Overall, Mr. Money Mustache has a very easy going and a laid back style of writing. It can appeal to most readers because he is not trying be anyone that he is not. You can tell that he is being himself when he writes.  Like mentioned before, he has a fun way of writing because he is passionate and isn't afraid to express his feelings. His use of swear words can be humorous but is mainly used to emphasize his passion and help get the message through to the reader. The comments that the audience posts on his forums are mostly positive as they explain how his advice has improved their lives. This helps his reputation as it increases his credibility.

Peter Adeney’s own success in life is his biggest credibility source. He retired at age 30 because of his intelligent financial decision making and he hopes to spread his knowledge to his audience. While doing so, he might also make the reader crack a smile as his personality is comedic and can relate to many people. His forums are successful because he keeps the readers interested and they want to read more and more.
